I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Chapter 98 Motivation
Seeing with his own eyes that Li Ran was fine, Ji Le let go of his hanging heart.

However, he was very puzzled by Li Ran asking Sun Wu to monitor Brother Meng just now.

She looked at Li Ran in surprise and asked:

"Does husband think that Brother Meng is also involved in this matter?"

After the robbery of the Qi State grain truck, Shu Niu has calmed down a lot in recent days, and his whole person seems to have become a lot more peaceful.

Moreover, the outbreak of the disease caused such a commotion, which also distracted a lot of everyone's attention.If he hadn't found out today that Ji Shi's guard had an inner ghost, Li Ran would have almost forgotten about him.

But what Ji Le couldn't understand was that even though Shu Niu was still hostile to Li Ran, after so long, could it be that Shu Niu was still thinking about dealing with Li Ran?
But this time the illness was obviously not aimed at Li Ran, so Shu Niu would really find trouble and participate in it?
"This matter..."

Li Ran showed embarrassment and sighed slightly, but in the end he still didn't choose to tell her the suspicion in his heart.

"This matter is just a suspicion for the husband, and it is still unclear."

In fact, he is really only suspicious of Shu Niu at the moment.During the whole incident, Shu Niu was quite quiet, and he really couldn't produce direct evidence.

Ji Le heard the sound and nodded thoughtfully.

……

In the past few days, the number of infected patients in Zhengyi City has maintained a sporadic increase.

It's not that the doctors in Zhengyi City didn't do their best, but these sick patients kept appearing, and there was no way to stop them.

But fortunately, those malicious poisoners have already been caught once, after all, they have the effect of knocking mountains and shaking tigers.Therefore, the disease in the whole of Zhengyi has finally stabilized gradually. Although there are sporadic patients, they basically have no decisive effect on the spread of the whole disease.

Seeing that the situation had been gradually brought under control, Zichan asked Li Ran if he could open the four gates now and allow the people living in the city to come and go freely.

After all, the impact of the banning law on him personally was really painful to the naked eye.

Because of the ban in the past half month, many people in Zheng Guo's government and opposition have expressed dissatisfaction with his move.

Although this proposal was not made by him, he is the Secretary of State after all.It is his duty as the Minister of State to carry out the policy formulated after the court meeting with dignity and professionalism.

But the long-term ban, whether it is the common people or officials, will have a day when they can't bear it.

What's more, Zhengyi is a hub of commerce and trade in the world, and one day of banning is equivalent to wasting thousands of dollars every day. The half-month ban, whether it is the common people or the merchants in the city, can imagine the losses.

Therefore, Zichan has been carrying out this seemingly unreasonable but helpless national policy under tremendous pressure.

And now, the only person he can rely on most is Li Ran.After all, this time, Li Ran knew far more than he did.

"I report to the doctor, but I think that the ban cannot be lifted at this time!"

Li Ran thought it over for a while, and replied in a very embarrassing way.

"Why?"

Hearing what Li Ran said, Zichan's heart sank, and he couldn't help but wonder.Since there are only a few sporadic patients, why can't the ban be lifted?If things go on like this, Zheng Yi will definitely be dragged down.

"Since this matter is man-made, if we cannot catch the mastermind behind the scenes or control it, then even if we can deal with the disease, it will be useless."

"After this matter is over, the rumors will die down, and those behind the scenes will come out to make trouble again. Does the doctor still want to use this method again? If it is not handled properly at that time, I'm afraid there will be a drastic change."

If you want to avoid future troubles forever, you must completely control the person behind the scenes.

Of course, Li Ran would not tell Zichan any unconfirmed clues, so he didn't mention anything about Fengduan and Shuniu today.

Zichan heard the sound and felt reasonable.

This matter is one and only, once the mastermind behind the scenes is not caught, Zheng Yi will inevitably repeat the same mistakes in the future, and then he will not be able to use the same means to stop it.

However, he was still a little worried. Since this matter was man-made, the perpetrator must have been hiding it very deeply.With Li Ran's current power in Zhengyi, can he really be caught?
"Please rest assured, doctor, since you have already intervened in this matter, you will never let this person escape easily!"

Li Ran's thoughts were straightforward, because since these people wanted to use the panic of creating diseases in Zhengyi to achieve their goals.

So obviously, in a short time, they will never let it go.Therefore, as long as they continue, Li Ran will definitely have a chance to catch them in the same way.

……

On the other hand, after a long period of ban, the voices against the ban in the Ji Clan gradually increased.

Even those clan elders who were originally on Li Ran's side couldn't help but start to waver at this moment.

Because they are a family of merchants, the loss is too great.

Not to mention their business dealings with the vassal states, even their own business in Zhengyi City, cannot withstand such a delay.

"Sovereign, we can't wait like this any longer. If the city gate is not opened after the birth of a child, are we going to starve to death in this city?!"

"Yes, suzerain, we can't afford to offend Qin. These barbarians are the most unreasonable. Once we offend them, we won't be able to get good fruit in the future! If we don't do it well, it will attract Qin's attention." It is not impossible to send troops to attack."

"Hmph! It's all that Li Ran! If he hadn't insisted on life and death, how could we be like this!"

At the end of the conversation, many clan elders shifted the responsibility to Li Ran, after all, he was the one who supported Zichan's series of measures from the beginning.

Now that Jishi is in such a predicament, if Li Ran doesn't take the blame, who will?

Ji Wang and Ji Xun heard the voices of these clan elders and saw them filled with righteous indignation and anger, and their confidence in Li Ran was shaken.

They were Li Ran's staunch supporters from the beginning. After all, Li Ran saved their lives, so naturally they would not have any doubts about Li Ran's plan.

But with the passage of time, they have also suffered a lot of losses now, and even have to sacrifice their flesh and blood to support their families. Such a loss is not insignificant to them.

Therefore, they did not say anything to speak for Li Ran this time, but stood quietly aside, waiting for the priest to deal with him.

"How is the situation in the city now?"

Unexpectedly, Jixian did not respond to the "cry" of these clan elders, but instead asked about the situation in the city.

"Sovereign, most of the patients in the city have been treated, but... there are still a few patients in the past few days, but most of them are fine."

The clan elder who was in charge of the operation of the medical center stood up and bowed in response.

"Father, my son heard that my uncle is also exhausted. Since the illness is no longer a serious problem, then let my uncle come back to the mansion. How can those servants in the courtyard take good care of my uncle?"

"Besides, it's not a problem for my little sister to be away all the time. If something happens to her, father will be sad too, right?"

Ji Wang asked tentatively, but he was forced back by Ji Xian's eyes on the spot.

He has always been on Li Ran's side in this matter. If Li Ran is behind his back at this time, wouldn't all the things Li Ran did these days be in vain?
In terms of emotion and reason, he couldn't disagree with Li Ran in this kind of matter, not only for Li Ran, but also for the whole family.

After all, before Zichan announced the lifting of the ban, their priests must keep pace with Zichan, which is a premise that no one can violate.

"Everything in the clan remains the same, and if someone speaks falsely about it, the family law will follow!"
